The software clones, upgrades, and transfers your system easily. It backups – (files, systems, disks), protects and restores data for personal use. Hence, makes upgrading of hard drives and SSDs faster and easier. The cloning software also makes it easier to transfer data from one PC to another. The cloning software makes it easier to load a standard image file with the operating system and applications to all computer devices using a clone server. The cloned disk is normally a bit-to-bit copy of an image file. It also becomes easier to copy the cloned disk to a new computer. If you have a way to have both the HDD and SSD attached simultaneously, such as a SATA to USB adapter, then you can just perform a direct clone.Hence, works to replace an external hard disk drive so you get a master copy of your data. Otherwise, you can capture an image backup of the HDD to some other destination, such as an external hard drive, then install the SSD, boot into Rescue Media, and restore image backup onto the SSD. The end result will be the same it will just take longer since it's a two-step process.

If the SSD has a different capacity compared to the HDD and you've got Reflect V8, then the clone and image restore wizards have an enhanced Copy Partitions function that will automatically resize partitions to fit the smaller or larger disk. If you're using Reflect V7, you can still resize partitions, but it takes a few more steps.

It's for cloning a disk, but the process for an image restore is the same except the option in question is called 'Restored Partition Properties' instead of 'Cloned Partition Properties' as shown.

The existing HDD is 500GB and I plan to buy a same size SSD.
